Directions
| 1. | Pulse half of the nuts & oats in a food processor until they are of flour consistency. Don't pulse too long or you'll have nut butter! | |
| 2. | Coarsely chop remaining nuts and mix in a bowl with the nut flour; add sunflower seeds, remaining gluten free oats and dried cranberries. | |
| 3. | In a small saucepan mix honey, coconut oil, extracts, salt & cinnamon. Bring to a boil; once frothing, cook 15 seconds. | |
| 4. | Remove honey mixture and mix into nut/oat mixture. | |
| 5. | Press firmly into an 8x8 pan, lined with foil. Refrigerate until set. | |
| 6. | Chop into bars, wrap in plastic and refrigerate or freeze. |

These are great!! Only thing i had to change was the chocolate chips. Since I had to use dairy free chocolate chips they melt way to easily. My second batch I did not add them, instead I waited for them to cool then melted them and drizzled it over the top of them.
Yay! I’m so glad you like them!
